Uhh, never thought of that.

apparently you've never had the handle break off.

they're easy to replace. with electric ones the motor can burn out and drop the window pain or if it doesnt then when trying to replace the motor the window can drop and break. if its just the switch you have to replae it (which is easy enough) but you also have the check the wiring to see if the switch shorted out, you also have to check the fuse to see if that had burnt out. there are more issues but these are the most common.

not the point. they still break.

of course they do. nothing is indestructable.....except old nokia's

Easier to fix than a broken automatic window.

Except that the handle could always break

I prefer them and Manual Transmissions(rare in 'Murica where I live). Less crap to break on them and you can roll them down no matter what if for some wierd reason I drive into a large body of water and need to get out.

I hear the best anti-theft device in 'Murica is to have a manual gearbox.

Not necessarily, the only people who own manuals are poor people lol.




>implying I'm poor

In Britian, everyone drives manual unless they are lazy. Has nothing to do with the cost of a car. If i had the money to buy a car over $100,000 i would still have a manual as i love them.

As do I, but that's just not the way here for some reason. I think it has to do with the fact that when buying a car new here in order to get an automatic transmission it costs an extra 1-2000 dollars. That's my guess, I like Manuals because it's a more engaging driving experience.

Not neceseraly. If you like racing you get a manual, and racing parts cost lots of money meaning that you aren't poor. :D

The threat down

You'll never catch me alive!

I thought that was a real bear!

how the fuck do you keep anything in your car?

My center console box locked for my Jeep if I ever needed to store valuable stuff. Other than that, the bigger things will stay in no problem. Just dont keep loose papers laying about (or loose pockets!).

But the point was that people wouldn't understand why we use the term "roll down" so this only proves the point because very few people know why a "bug" is a computer malfunction.

A cathode ray tube isn't a good place for a bug to be.

Why? Because he wasn't familiar with something he didn't grow up with... I mean if you came up to me and asked me what those old radioactive glucose fMRI tests were in the 90's and wanted to kill you because he didn't know what a PET scan was it wouldn't make sense. Sure what I said isn't common place, but same concept. Simply educate his young mind. I know it's a joke, and what not, and I found it funny, but don't be to harsh on the guy. I'll be honest, I know what a VHS is, but had to look up what it meant when I read this post.

All seriousness aside, murder him anyway, he now knows too much.

My family had a VHS up till he was 7. He's 11 now. He should remember this.

Didn't know, can't read minds, more of a general message.

All is good, friend. Have a good day :p

That would be like you saying remember when everyone fought with muskets in 1400

And then your dad almost beating you.

Just got the date wrong, assuming he is young he probably just doesn't calculate the time difference well. Remember how we all said "When people say 10 years ago I think 1990s"

Like I said to the other guy, he's 11 now, and we had a VHS up until he was 7. You will never understand my discontent with this child. He just now came up to me and asked what an "OP" is. I inquired as to why he asked and he said that someone on kik said it. He's a swaggot, who spends 2 hours a day on twitter and has had an iPhone since he was 9. He's the current scum of the earth, along with most other kids his age.

Lol no worries bud, I was just tossing up a counterpoint

All is good, have fun browsing, friend.

almost? man, you have much more self-control than i would.

I just might.

I know that feel.

Brother!
INB4 penis jokes, it's been that height since '77 or '78
390 and a 4 speed here.
But fuck, I love those Ansens on your truck.

Thanks Mayn!
76 with a CJ429 with a 4 speed, I just swapped the 429 in last summer, it did have a 460 in it.

Oh god, that's glorious.
My old man (the previous owner of this truck) had three '76s and a 79, with one of them being nearly identical to yours, with a mildly built up 460 in it. Was bought for the motor, to go in the big pictured F250, but time ran out and he sold it to a scrapper with the other two trucks as well. As far as I know, the scrapper kept the 460. I sure as hell hope so

Nice car though

thanks.

that's why i love my 92 camaro rs, no power anything, and my parents car has window, and door lock problems.

glorious 80's 2 wheel master race checking in

I have a 96 Camaro and the window motors are still going like champs.

>camaro
>why would it have problems

Well, it's nearly as old as me, and it wasn't well taken care of by previous owners. Plus 17 years is a pretty good run for window motors.

mine was drove into the ground, now it is a 450hp beast that I use as a daily driver.

would u say being an auto tech is a good career choice?

Depends, if you work for a company, or dealership, or yourself, then hell yea.

If you go to work at Joes Car and Truck, [made the name up] chances are you will not make bad money but you will not have that great of a job.

So best thing would be to try and get on with a legit dealership?

Best would be to get on in a Porsche dealership [or better] , they make great money.

Going to a community college for a year and getting a certificate would be enough or do you think I'd need an associates?

if you are ASE certified, you should be able to.

Oh my god...

YES.








can i get in your car?

What'd you get? I Also just got a new car. 2013 Honda CR-Z but it came with all that shit standard...

did u buy a prosche

i think they charge extra to remove stuff for weight savings

hah. like i could afford a porsche

Even with manual windows, the pressure difference stops the windows from rolling down.

**Drifter rolled a random image posted in comment #2970272 at My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ** an elbow will work all the same...

I'm twelve and what is this?

yeah look at that neck fat

Then for you this is your life story for all of our tech

if so then i am ashamed of the youth these days

Hell yeah, 1976 F250, 390V8 and a 4 speed here.
Not daily driven because lolgasmileiage but that and my 63 Galaxie are two crank-window pieces of art

I like your avatar. I hear *swish* every time the tail goes by haha

Hahah thanks, I love gifs that feel like you can hear things with them.
